Re: Constant 100% CPU utilization since Season 3 update

@MrDecepticon Same, this is the ONLY game in my entire library that suffers from this problem 5800x and 3080ti. This is partially caused by the latest windows 11 update (massive improvement from reverting it), but microsoft claims they fixed the issue in the latest update and it still exists. This game is the biggest fail in DICE history, how they could let a problem that literally makes the game unplayable last for longer than a week is braindead.

    @MrDecepticon, Microsoft has released a new update for Windows 11 22H2, update KB5020044, that should address some performance issues some players are having if they are playing games on Win11 build 22H2. But that KB is GPU related, this issue is CPU related and is something we are investigating.

    @EA_Leeuw Windows 10 has a 22HA update as well in the Optional Updates section, I will be testing it out on my rig and report back if there is a change.

    Don't know what I did exactly, I installed the newest Nvidia drivers, restarted PC a few times and CPU usage is fixed 5800x.

    @Arrakis681 Update gpu drivers to latest, reset processor to default state, download latest version of windows, restart computer twice. Fixed for me.
